Can Ulcamed cause constipation and how to deal with it?

The gastroenterologist wrote me Ulcamed. The drug helps, but after a few days from the start of therapy began to bother me constipation? Can this medicine cause constipation? How to deal with them? Can I take something for constipation? If so, what?

For @Edyta: Yes, the drug can be taken both during and after a meal. You can use, for example, one dose for breakfast and one for dinner.

Thank you very much. I hope it helps. Can I take Duphalac or Duphalac Fruit after breakfast and dinner?

For @Edyta: Without consulting a doctor, lactulose can be used for about 1-2 months. So you can take Duphalac for the entire period of use of Ulcamed. Dosage - 2 times a day one tablespoon will be as suitable as possible. The difference between Duphalac and Duphalac Fruit is the content of flavoring additives. Ordinary Duphalac does not contain flavor additives, Duphalac Fruit contains plum aroma, which is supposed to improve the taste qualities of the product. The content of the active substance, i.e. lactulose, is the same in both products.

Thank you. Are these drugs for constipation, I mean specifically the drug in the form of Duphalac syrup can I take 2 times a day for 1 tablespoon? If so, can I take it for a long time, i.e. until the end of therapy with Ulcamed? Ulcamed I have to take for 8 weeks. Constipation is very annoying even painful. If possible, please also inform me what is the difference between Duphalac syrup and Duphalac Fruit syrup? Do they both work the same? Can both be taken for a longer period of time? I have never needed medication for constipation, hence the lack of my knowledge in this subject regarding Duphalac syrup and Duphalac Fruit.

Ulcamed may cause constipation. In the first place, it is worth taking care of the proper supply of fluids, drinking min. 2 liters of water per day. You can also take preparations based on macrogol or lactulose, which you will buy in a pharmacy without a prescription, e.g. https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/30975/forlax-10-g-proszek-do-wytworzenia-plynu/apteki?pvid=75352#internetowe https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/42186/lactulose-mip-syrop/apteki?pvid=102424#internetowe These agents do not "lazy" the intestines, act gently and used regularly allow you to restore the proper rhythm of bowel movements. I also include links to helpful posts" https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/zaparcia-jak-z-nimi-walczyc https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jak-i-dlaczego-zglaszac-dzialania-niepozadane

User questions and answers that provide feedback about products are not verified for the purchase or use of the product. Companies often order anonymous comments to form positive opinions about their products, or negative ones about competitors. Therefore, be guided by the information in the pharmacists' responses in the first place.
